Abstract
We report the first complete genome sequence of a strain that presents some pathogenicity and that belongs to a recently characterized genotype of avian paramyxovirus type 1 (APMV-1). This virus, isolated from the common teal, presents the most divergent genome within class I of APMV-1.

Newcastle disease is a serious infectious disease in poultry, and outbreaks must be reported to the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) [1]
This disease is caused by avian paramyxovirus type 1 (APMV-1), which belongs to the family Paramyxoviridae, the subfamily Paramyxovirinae, and the genus Avulavirus [2]
Summary
We report the first complete genome sequence of a strain that presents some pathogenicity and that belongs to a recently characterized genotype of avian paramyxovirus type 1 (APMV-1). This disease is caused by avian paramyxovirus type 1 (APMV-1), which belongs to the family Paramyxoviridae, the subfamily Paramyxovirinae, and the genus Avulavirus [2]. This virus has a negative single-stranded RNA genome of 15,186 to 15,198 nucleotides encoding 6 major proteins [3]. APMV-1 is divided into 2 classes based on genetic analysis.
